[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 2794463, member: 1125"] But an ancient custom of the natives may yet have ramifications for the settlers and a few of the new settlers exploring the duskfangs have already fallen victim to savage cannibalistic attacks. Others tell stories of creatures in Duskfangs that a taller than human and hobgoblin alike, shaggy haired creatures with cruel claws and a taste for human flesh. The few hobgoblin tribesmen who cling to the old ways nod knowingly, secretly rejoicing at the news for it means that the link between the spirit world and the flesh world that the foreign liquor has blocked is being renewed. The creatures are called [I]Wetiko[/I] in the native tongue and are said to derive from the ancient custom of twin-slaying. To the Hobgoblisn twins were an abomination and so when such a pair was born the second was taken and left as a sacrifice to the Duskfangs. However when the survivng twin came of age they were known to be great warriors for in times of great distress they had a spirit-twin who would appear and slay their enemies. (Metanotes: These creatures could be represented by hobgoblin ghouls or ghosts, bugbears or hobgoblins lycanthorpes (or by a new creature). The main 'additional power' being that they will appear when a hobgoblin 'twin' is in distress) [/QUOTE]
